Invested Capital Calculation

  • 1. For calculating ROIC, capitalised operating leased aircraft are included in the Group’s Invested Capital at the AUD market value (referencing AVAC) of the aircraft at the date of commencing operations at the

prevailing AUD/USD rate. This value is depreciated in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies with the calculated depreciation expense known as notional depreciation. The carrying value (AUD market value less accumulated notional depreciation) is reported within Invested Capital as capitalised operating leased aircraft assets. 2. Equal to the 12 months average of monthly Invested Capital.

  • Refinanced 9 operating leased aircraft to

unencumbered owned aircraft – Decrease in capitalised operating leased assets – Increase in property, plant and equipment

  • Capex > depreciation with FY17 capex weighted to

Net Debt

  • 1. Net on balance sheet debt includes interest-bearing liabilities and the fair value of hedges related to debt reduced by cash and cash equivalents. 2. Capitalised aircraft operating lease liabilities are measured at fair

value at the lease commencement date and remeasured over lease term on a principal and interest basis akin to a finance lease. Residual value of capitalised aircraft operating lease liability denominated in foreign currency is translated at the long-term exchange rate. 3. Net debt includes on balance sheet debt and capitalised aircraft operating lease liabilities under the Group’s Financial Framework. 4. A$250m with a semi- annual coupon of 4.40% per annum, maturing in October 2023, and A$175m with a semi-annual coupon of 4.75% per annum, maturing in October 2026.

  • Two medium term notes of $425m at

favourable rates and long tenor of 7 and 10 years4

  • Repayment of $227m in short term amortising

debt repayments borrowings, largely secured debt

impairment) and non-cancellable aircraft operating lease rentals, adjusted for movements in FX rates and capacity. 1H17 vs 1H14. 3. Actioned Full Time Equivalent employee reduction as at 31 December 2016.

  • 4. Reduction in net debt including capitalised operating lease liabilities. 5. Management’s estimate based on Moody’s methodology. 6. Managements estimate based on Standard and Poor's methodology. 7. Net free

cash flow is operating cash flows less investing cash flows (excluding aircraft operating lease refinancing). Net free cash flow is a measure of the amount of operating cash flows that are available (i.e. after investing activities) to fund reductions in net debt or payments to shareholders. 8. Measured as average 1H17 Net Promoter Score. 9. Qantas mainline operations (excluding QantasLink) for 1H17 compared to 1H16. Source: BITRE.

recognition of breakage at the time of points expiry. However, the actual rate of breakage is used to inform the estimated breakage rate for initial recognition.
